The new lightweight RSS watch and speedometer
use radar to provide precise speed and distance information to skiers,
joggers, cyclists and other
sports enthusiasts.
Based on wireless inputs from a speedometer worn on a user's belt, the
MSP430F412
MCU with on-chip flash memory supplies the time, calculates
distance, speed and average speed and
then displays this information through
an on-chip LCD driver. The
pulse measurement unit uses
an MSP430F1121 MCU, also with integrated flash
memory, and collects the wearer's vital statistics
using the integrated
comparator as a slope ADC and transmits this information to the watch via a
wireless transmitter-receiver.
"We chose TI's MSP430 MCU platform not only because of its
industry
leading ultra-low power consumption and automatic, real time clock standby
mode but also
because of the integrated LCD drive, ADC and flash memory as
well as the support for various memory
configurations," said Stefan Moedl,
